No.According to the instructions for Maryland's Personal Property tax return, 

 "State law requires that certain types of personal property be fully exempt throughout Maryland from any assessment and taxation. These include aircraft, farming implements, residential (non-business) property, most registered vehicles, boats not more than 100 feet in length, customized computer software, intangible personal property (e.g., stocks, bonds, patents, goodwill, trademarks, etc.)." See page 2 :http://dat.maryland.gov/SDAT%20Forms/2016%20Form%20AT3-51%20Instructions.pdf

The tax is imposed on business personal property (not real estate) for a sole proprietorship,and your rental activity is not a sole proprietorship.
